Please join the CFMA Twin Cities as we tour one of Gardner Builders’ job sites! Afterwards,

we will host a happy hour on the shores of Lake Minnetonka just a few miles away. Here is more detail about the job site:

The Cargill project spans over 400,000 square feet of upgrades, designed to enhance both

guest experience and employee collaboration. Through a design-build approach, teams tackle challenges like space optimization, energy efficiency, and logistical improvements with innovative, cost-effective solutions. Key features include seamless integration of lighting, temperature, and acoustics to create a sustainable, adaptable environment.

Sustainability is central to the project, with efforts to reduce landfill waste by reusing materials and partnering with manufacturers to re-purpose carpet tiles. The team is partnering with local businesses to help with these sustainable initiatives, including SDDI Signs, Imagin Studios, Hennepin Made, and Frame Minnesota, among many others. The design also fosters a welcoming workplace culture, encouraging collaboration and employee connection.

Join us for a tour to see how thoughtful design drives functionality, sustainability, and community impact!

Personal protective equipment (PPE) is required for the site visit. If you have your own

PPE, please bring it! This includes hard hat, vest, safety glasses, and gloves. Please avoid loose fitting clothing. Closed-toed shoes are required (boots preferred). Each person will need to bring their driver’s license with them as they may need it for check in.
